Will I be able to get into the colleges I want to go to with a 3.185 and a 3.235 weighted?

I really messed up my freshmen year, I had an overall gpa of 2.3. Sophomore year I got on track and my gpa slowly started to raise and at the end of the year i had a 2.7. Junior year I really picked it up with 4.0's and an ap class. Every summer since freshmen year I have been taking summer school. At the end of my junior year my gpa raised to what it is now. Over the years I show a lot of progress. I have a 25 on my act and I played soccer for two years. I love the south and I know I want to go to schools there so i was wondering with my grades and stuff if I would be able to get into Clemson, University of South Carolina, College of Charleston, or University of North Carolina Wilmington. I still have senior year to raise my gpa but my gpa now is what really matters. So please tell me if I have a chance or if you know of some other big southern schools I will be able to get in to.

I think you have a good shot. Colleges love to see an upward trend in your GPA, it shows that you care about school and work to improve, and junior/senior year grades are the most important anyway. Some colleges even recalculate your GPA to not count freshman year.
